+Radical servers comparision {#radical-servers-comparision-1}
+===========================
+
+This document pretends to show a comparision of the radical servers. At
+least the one I\'ve used. I\'ll dig onto their privacy policy, what they
+provide...
+
+Riseup
+======
+
+RiseUp is an anarchocommunist radical server. It provides, for
+registered users: E-Mail and XMPP. For unregistered users, it provides
+mailing lists, VPN, pads, filesharing...
+
+E-Mail
+------
+
+Their E-Mail servers is **really** good. You can have infinite aliases.
+So you can use your riseup account without having to give your real
+address. (You can delete adresses anytime)
+
+XMPP
+----
+
+Riseup. I love you and all. But please, fix your XMPP server, it\'s
+unusable:
+
+-   Can\'t use HTTP File Upload
+
+-   Does not support avatars in MUC
+
+-   Does not support MUC
+
+-   Does not support message carbons
+
+    In other worse. Their XMPP could be **MUCH** better. I hope they fix
+    it.
+
+Privacy policy
+--------------
+
+-   No IP address log
+
+Awesome. I don\'t do this either.
+
+-   Keep \"From:\" and \"To:\" E-Mail headers to prevent spam
+
+This is okay. I mean, even if you use PGP, the emails header cannot be
+encrypted. Those logs are removed after a few days.
+
+-   Last logins are in quarters.
+
+Meaning they just log that you log once every 4 months. Which is good.
+
+-   Data is encrypted. And only Riseup can decrypt it. Cool. Feds cannot
+    break onto Riseup\'s
+
+Riseup and government
+---------------------
+
+According to <https://riseup.net/en/about-us/policy/government-faq>,
+Riseup would rather nuke their server than giving information to the
+government.
+
+If you do illegal things in Riseup (drugs, cheese pizza) (which, btw,
+violates Riseup\'s TOS), riseup will most likely work with the feds to
+stop you rather than nuking the organization.
+
+Conclusion
+----------
+
+Riseup is literally the best thing you can do for E-Mail. **BUT** you
+need to be invited to it. And no. the writer of this won\'t give you an
+invite. Don\'t use this for XMPP.
+
+Snopyta
+=======
+
+Snopyta provides way more services than Riseup (which doesn\'t means
+it\'s better)
+
+According to the privacy policy. \"No data will be ever shared\"
+
+Searx
+-----
+
+I use the snopyta searx instance as my search engine. And I haven\'t had
+a single problem with it. They **DON\'T** log any IP address or search
+queries. But they really have to update the Searx version. So we can use
+the morty proxy feature.
+
+XMPP
+----
+
+I haven\'t used it. But a friend has. And he haven\'t had a single
+problem with it. So I guess it is good. According to the
+conversations.im compliance test. It has 100% of compliance.
+Recommended. IP addresses are not stored in the server. Nice
+
+E-Mail
+------
+
+Idk. I haven\'t use it, they aren\'t offering more accounts. But,
+according to their privacy policy:
+
+-   Emails are stored plain text unless you use PGP or something like
+    that. But the drive where the mails are is encrypted. The sent and
+    recieved logs are cleaned every 24 hours.
+
+Mastodon
+--------
+
+I use the <https://social.snopyta.org> mastodon instance. By default.
+nothing is stored in the server unless you create an account. According
+to the mastodon privacy policy everything you post is stored in the
+server (Including private messages). So don\'t use it for sensitive
+things.
+
+DNS services
+------------
+
+Nothing is logged. If there\'s some abuse, logs will be kept, but will
+be nuked after 24 hours.
+
+Conclusion
+----------
+
+Use it for Searx and XMPP, maybe Mastodon if you want. They provide
+more services. But they're require an account or are no too privacy
+oriented. (RSS, for example) They also provide this pastebin which
+uses AES256 encryption. And according to them. They have no way to
+decrypt it.
+
+If you don\'t trust their \"no logs\" policy, alright, they provide a
+hidden service (.onion) for everything. So use that instead!
+
+These are all the services I\'ve used for things. If I use more
+services. I\'ll add them here.
